anaconda log file
/etc/sysconfig/network was not written out by anaconda because you performed a DVD install. There is currently some discussion going on about what policy should be with regard to prompting the user for network settings during install vs. what should be default. Until policy is declared, anaconda will continue to do what it does. However, the init script for exim should handle the absence of /etc/sysconfig/network more gracefully. Reassigning. Fixed in exim-4.69-13.fc12 ------- Comment From pavan.naregundi.com 2009-08-26 05:05 EDT------- Tested in the F12 Alpha. exim version: exim-4.69-12.fc12.ppc ============ ============ ------- Comment From emachado.ibm.com 2009-08-26 08:13 EDT------- Reopening this issue per previous comment... Er, why? I said 'fixed', someone else said 'tested', and I kind of assumed that meant a _successful_ test... ------- Comment From pavan.naregundi.com 2009-10-21 05:33 EDT------- This bug can be closed now. Issue is not seen on F12 beta This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 12 development cycle. Changing version to '12'. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping This message is a reminder that Fedora 12 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 12. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '12'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 12's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 12 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Fedora 12 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2010-12-02. Fedora 12 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |

Just clarifying, is this blocking/compromising the install? Would you know if network install works fine? Also, did this happen on Fedora 11 Preview or previous beta releases? Could you please provide dmesg and 'ifconfig -a' output? Thanks a lot. =Comment: #2================================================= PAVAN NAREGUNDI <pavan.naregundi.com> - (In reply to comment #1) > Hi Pavan, > > At the first glance, I'd say the ifcfg-* files are generated by > system-config-network or NetworkManager during F11 installation, but I might be > wrong and it can be a bug.

It is not blocking the install. Network install on P6 is blocked by another bug #52659 (Red Hat Bugzilla #496820). On P5 system network install worked fine. It was not the case of F11 preview or beta. > > Could you please provide dmesg and 'ifconfig -a' output? # ifconfig -a eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:21:5E:03:1D:21 BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:13033840674 (12.1 GiB) TX bytes:54711039 (52.1 MiB) lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 RX packets:418 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:418 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:45354 (44.2 KiB) TX bytes:45354 (44.2 KiB) =Comment: #3================================================= PAVAN NAREGUNDI <pavan.naregundi.com> - If I configure DNS configuration through 'system-config-network', '/etc/sysconfig/network' file gets created and rebooting no more shows the error " /etc/rc3.d/S80exim: line 16: /etc/sysconfig/network: No such file or directory /etc/rc3.d/S80exim: line 27: [: =: unary operator expected " However still system-config-network does recognize the eth0. Thanks Pavan =Comment: #5================================================= Edjunior Barbosa Machado <emachado.ibm.com> - Per dmesg and ifconfig outputs, the net interface eth0 (eHEA) is found but it seems it does not get properly configured. Pavan, could you please provide anaconda log files? Thank you. ================================================= Hello Red Hat, could you please take a look at this issue? Since the text install has changed on Fedora 11, we'd like to double check whether this is a correct behavior or not. Also, please note that exim start script may not to be working properly after install. I'm mirroring this issue against component "anaconda" but feel free to move to a proper one, please. Thanks for your support.
